Exclusive: Drake is upset with Universal Music Group’s alleged business practices, not Lamar’s lyrics, a source told The Independent.
The filing accuses UMG, which has deals with both performers, of paying Spotify to recommend “Not Like Us” to users “who are searching for other unrelated songs and artists,”
Hasn't Drake been accused of this exact thing multiple times over the years?
I think it was drake's scorpion album that was suggested in everything. His face was in every genre. Basically looked like spam. Country and jazz where the ones that pissed me off. I stopped using Spotify after that.
I wrote to spotify because I was a premium customer and my whole launch page was full with that cunt when scorpion released. I have never intentionally played his songs or visited his page on spotify.
Drake has absolutely done this to a headwrecking extent.
Related? I use Spotify but with last.fm providing the playlists (my library, mix, recommended). I find their algorithm is either better or has more data, but regardless is really good at not playing the same 40 fucking songs and will give you some deep cuts as well as totally new artists..
You set up last.fm to play through spotify vs the default youtube. The youtube player tends to play live tracks... which I often rather hear the album version. But yeah, it's in the last.fm settings.
